How were they?
How they were our grandmothers and great- mothers to have healthy babies when they not taking any vitamins pregnancy, they do not always eat what was best because it was costing too expensive or they did not consume enough calcium, iron or other, then they did not know he had to avoid solid food succeptibles make them sick like salmonella, while certainly using strong household products, medicines or things to avoid like the Vicks , etc..
At least this time, when women were pregnant, certainly did not feel like a sword of Damocles above head in every decision they should take every step they did.
There are days where I feel like a cult. The cult of pregnant women. No longer does it, not eat it, do not touch this medication, sleeping on the side with a pillow between your legs, take snacks even if you're not hungry, take your vitamins for pregnancy, takes the Folic acid even before being pregnant, do not make long car trip, avoids forcing, etc. ...
I'm not trying to complain, but I make a finding on the difference in the lives of pregnant women and formerly us now. I see all the stress imposed on us by our society, and the anguish and remorse that we feel if, heaven forbid we dare to eat an egg with the yolk is not cooked, the meat a little pink or to put Vicks because we can no longer breathe.
There are thousands of years that humans reproduce, but I do not think there were so many restrictions and recommendations, and yet ... we are here today, and certainly not because the women of 100 years ago ate vitamins and minerals, folic acid, iron and calcium while avoiding salmonella and listeria.
